Before entering the division, although the official level was still deliberately low-key, everyone knew that SIPG was running for the double crown. And this encounter between the first and the deep foot, there was no accident; SIPG easily got the opening red!
Oscar staged a dimensionality reduction blow, and SIPG suppressed the deep foot in all directions
Before entering the division, The Deep Foot held a grand guild meeting to clarify the goals of the AFC Champions League. Because the points are relatively "backward", even if the strength is down and down, but in this game, Shenzu still sent a foreign aid trident and set a goal of grabbing points. In the opening stages of the first and second halves, deep feet played better; in the first 15 minutes of the first half, Dai Weijun's several back-insertions created a threat, and in the opening stage of the second half, Achimpen exploded into the goal. But throughout the game, it's clear that Deep Foot is not at the same level as Harbor.
Since Cruyff Jr. took over last year, he has established a style of playing pass control and attacking for the deep foot; and Cruyff Jr. hand-picked Carlos to take over before leaving, and the deep foot after Carlos took over naturally continued the tactical thinking of the little ke. However, as early as the first stage, facing the two strong teams of Taishan and Evergrande, Shenzu had already exposed the problem that the midfield could not control and the back could not be defended. Even if they won the Evergrande game, the scene was completely crushed by the opponent, and the opponent fired 20 shots. When you want to control the ball, want to play offense, but don't have the ability to control the game in a strong collision game, encountering SIPG looks like playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong!
When it comes to the gap between SIPG and Shenzhen, it is vividly reflected through the comparison between Oscar and Quintero. Kintro was almost sleepwalking throughout the game, while Oscar was one goal and one assist, and also instigated a goal; especially his assist on Mui's ball after consecutive crotch piercings caused countless surprises.
Talking about the huge contrast between the performances of Oscar and Quintero, there are reasons for the individual state of the players, and it can also reflect that the overall view of the two players is not at the same level. Oscar's every kick is very artistic, while Quintero's handling of the ball is often a bit dragging. Of course, the contrast between Quintero and Oscar is also related to the execution of the players on both sides.
The deep pass control system still relies on Quintero's personal ability to organize and dispatch many times, and there is a lack of connection between other players and Quintero in many cases. So now all teams play deep enough to know that staring at Quintero will win at least half. After conceding the ball, Achim Penkardeck will grab it, but Quintero does not participate in the defense, does not rebound, and the deep-footed pressing is not enough to pressure the opponent a lot of times. In contrast, in SIPG's offensive system, Oscar is not the only point of departure; Oscar, Paulinho and Mui can guide the ball on the field, and these three foreign players have strong forward insertion ability and the ability to pass the ball. So in the game, we often see that sometimes Paulinho Jr. or Mui take the deep back with a forward insertion, and then it depends on Oscar's performance; if Oscar takes the defender away, Mui inserts it and is empty... After conceding the ball, Oscar will also take the lead in defense and take the lead in grabbing, and the whole team of SIPG will be the first to invest in counter-grabbing to limit the opponent's defensive turn.
When there is a huge gap between the control, execution and team integrity of the deep footballers, there is a huge gap with Hong Kong, and SIPG uses the offensive and defensive conversions to easily find space again and again, and the deep foot defense line is slipped as if it were the first time.
The initial results of the non-frontal strikes to cover up the arrow problem, and SIPG opens the way to grab the points
In the first stage of the league, SIPG scored only fewer goals than Evergrande and conceded the fewest. But before this game, they were only fourth in the league, five points behind The Taishan team, the main reason is that in the first stage, SIPG did not win several games that should have been won. The main reason for not taking it down is that after Anao left, there was a problem with the attack.
During this long intermission, López was reimbursed back to Brazil due to injury season, and the only legitimate strikers in SIPG's list were Li Shenglong, Liu Zhurun, Hu Jinghang and Lu Wenjun, who was basically fixed on the left by Lecco. The reserves of the front line are not enough, and the individual ability of the front players is relatively lacking, and Lecco has begun to try the frontless team as early as the late first stage after Paulinho Jr. joined the team. In the first leg of the FA Cup against Shenhua, SIPG's frontless formation showed amazing destructive power for the first time; now The return of Mooy has further strengthened SIPG's control and ability to pass the threat ball, and when they use straight plugs to hit the ribs, the full-wingers and the tricks inserted behind the midfield have been tried and tested, and Lyco's no-front test has begun to bear fruit, which also covers up SIPG's arrow problem to the greatest extent.
Although it is one of the few teams in the Chinese Super League that does not owe wages, and it is also the most stable team in the investor, the stability is not enough to support SIPG's desire for the championship; and in this game in Shenzhen, SIPG sacrificed "killing gas", and they have opened the road to grab points.
5 points behind Taishan, but SIPG has the advantage of the schedule; after all, the three teams in Guangdong have great problems in combat effectiveness, and in those 6 games, as long as they do not trust the big basically flat trip. They had already set their sights on the two decisive battles with Tarzan! On the other hand, in addition to the Taishan team to play in Hong Kong, Yatai will also die with them. And Yatai, a team that sits on the central axis of foreign aid and is good at playing defensive counterattacks, has always been a headache for the Taishan team, so 5 points is not an insurmountable gap! The battle between Oscar and Fellaini for the first foreign aid in the Chinese Super League will directly determine this year's championship!
